new bud by quietpurplehaze

new bud

The 'habitat' which my orchids love most is in the shower room, on a shelf adjacent to a large window.

A new leaf and new buds appeared on the resident orchid not long after it had stopped its previous flowering which had lasted ages.

This is the first to open.
I never though of a shower room for orchids, but of course that would be perfect with all the moist air! Lovely lovely shot.

Beautiful flower and clarity. Do you think it is the humidity they like? we once had a cacti that only flowered once and for one day in our old house and that was in the bathroom.

Yes I thinkit is the humidty, also the light. Filtered through a frosted window pane and the orchid is not right up against the window sill.
